Neutrogena Oil Free Moisture Review

Hello Friends,

How was your weekend, mine was good considering that I went for some bridal trousseau shopping for a family wedding, which is to take place next month. As the time was quiet short, we went to South Extension. Some really cool sari shops there with a host of options. We checked out Nalli’s my all time favorite, the pieces there are not only authentic but they are reasonably priced. Visit Nalli for some really cool traditional outfits.

Then we moved ahead and found Ushnak Mal Sari shop, there are now so many there, but I visit the one closest to the Bengali Sweets. The ground floor has a plethora of ready to wear suits and anarkali, and bridal lehngas. The first floor stocks Saris. You name the variety and they have it. Very classy pieces and designer saris as well. They have never failed to disappoint me in variety and designs. Overall, I was quiet happy with the purchases made, and thoroughly enjoyed the day.

So, coming to the product under review, it’s Neutrogena oil free moisture with SPF 15. I am using this product for more than two years now and it is one of my Holy Grail products.

Price: INR 299 for 115 ml of the product (I got this on a discounted price of INR 280). Packaging is quiet nice and travel friendly with plastic bottle having a pump, which dispenses just the right amount of the product. One pump is enough for your entire face.

Swatch:

I just love this moisturizer, so much that it has become a staple in my daily routine. It is what it claims, totally non gresy yet moisturising. It has never broken me out and never made my face oily even in the hottest of summer days. Keeps my face looking fresh till the end of day without making it feel stretchy. Moreover, since it has SPF I never felt the need to apply an additional layer of sunscreen. The product comes in a separate variant for combination skin as well. The only drawback I feel is in the packaging, which doesnot allow you to decipher the amount of product left.

Product rating: A, available at all chemist shops, and online shopping websites. Would definitely recommend this to everyone, as it has made my skin more supple with prolonged use and never broken me out.
